Washington: Nearly 7 in 10 registered voters (68%) say President Joe Biden is ‘too old for another term’. This has come to the fore in a new poll conducted by Yahoo News and YouGov. Not only this, 48% of Democrats have agreed with this assessment, while 34% do not believe so.
The survey was conducted between 23 and 27 February among 1,516 American voters. It highlights the central challenge facing the oldest president in US history (Joe Biden) as he prepares to run for re-election in the next possible presidential election and his age puts his party in a difficult position.
The main problem for Democrats is not Biden’s performance in the presidency, as 77% of Democrats approve of how comfortable the 80-year-old is handling the job, while only 20% believe he is doing well. You are not performing the tasks.
Registered voters who are Democrats or Democratic-leaning also say they would prefer to see Biden re-nominated for president (47%) than ‘anyone else’ (34%). 47% of voters who now say they will nominate Biden, the highest number since November 2021.
Joe Biden has already said that he intends to contest the presidential election again, but he has not made an official announcement yet. By the way, he has not given much attention to these questions of whether he has become too old to continue on the post of President. He will be 86 years old by the end of the second term.
However, just a few days ago, America’s first female citizen (president’s wife) Jill Biden has given a very clear indication that President Joe Biden will contest for a second term. He indicated this in a special interview with the Associated Press.
